Fucking hell, what the FUCK have you done to the COLOURS?

I had them set to a nice muted sagey green for OP posts, and a quiet pink for mine. Now I'm living in a neon green horror movie, and I've gone grey.

Put things back as they were, please, and for the love of god tell Tech to stop meddling.

I'm not a fan of the puke green, but I am glad they've made them darker at least..

The pink for my posts remains pink. The same pink.

I've the horror neon green instead of the nice (unaffected by previous changes of late) green, just like you.

And I don't like it.

How about putting them all back to how they were? Whether forcibly altered in round 1 or round 2 of the changes.

And adding horror green as an additional choice for those that want it?

And I thought colours had specific meanings. I have this on the desktop, but OP is a nice green on the mobile site.

My OP is in forest green - I quite like it. I thought the point was that we weren't having customised colours anymore, how come we're now seeing different?

Look if you are going to make drastic changes like this you need to do a consultation or something ffs.

I found myself mysteriously logged out of MN today when I visited the site, and when I logged on I found the colours have all changed in my threads.

I had the OP's posts in green and nothing else coloured. Now I seem to have shades of purple and pink and I don't see any way to change settings.

(How can I get to 'settings'?)

(Or 'customise options'?)

This is to do with the changes they made for guest posters, see here www.mumsnet.com/Talk/site_stuff/2748703-Update-to-webchat-guest-colours

It's a right fucking mess, IMO.
My beautiful forest green colour for OP's posts is now vomitous salmon, and my own silver posts have taken on a pinkish hue. I can live with the second, the first is DISGUSTING.

As yet, no word. But I'm Not Happy. Halloween Angry

I'm scared of trying to change any of it.

I think I had forest green too. It was lovely and easy to read with my glasses on. Now the script in the pinky/lilac OP posts appears red to me. Really want my green back...

Despite an MNHQer saying if we'd been around a while (yes) and customised our colours (tick), then nothing would change - no tick, bloody great cross.

Also went from forest green to vomitous sickly salmon. Still have my lavender but on quick scrolling they're too similar. Not sure about changing my lavender in case I get something worse. Or lose Classic Shock
